The present invention is directed to a linear actuator including an external adjustable variable limit switch. The linear actuator allows the position of the limit switch to be adjusted without disassembling the linear actuator or motor. In one embodiment, the linear actuator includes a profile tube having an upper end and a lower end, a slot that runs from the upper end to the lower end of the profile tube, and an internal track that runs from the upper end to the lower end of the profile tube. The linear actuator also includes at least one limit switch mounted on the slot and a limit switch adjuster and a locking fastener configured to permit the position of the limit switch to be adjusted without disassembly of the linear actuator or motor. The limit switch adjuster is further configured to be positioned in the internal track.
